I can't believe that no one has written a review for this place. I was happy that we had the…read moresecond floor all to ourselves. I was able to take numerous pictures, and I didn't have to worry about my table manners. Instead of us asking each other to pass the heavy trays or dishes around, we just excused each other for reaching for the food. With my luck, if I tried to pass or receive a dish, I would drop it. The food was delicious! We started off with the Pate de Jamon, and we ate that like there was no tomorrow. The La Cata de los Tres Olivos and the Tabla de Manchego were wonderful with our 3 orders of Jamon. I enjoyed eating the Ensalada con Queso with the Jamon, Pork and Steak dishes. The luscious appetizers, savory meat dishes, delightful Crema de Queso and Tocino de Cielo deserts is a good reason why my niece booked a reservation for her birthday in December. If you're coming here for their Jamon and wine pairings, don't come here when it's time for the elections like we did. Now we know why we had the second floor to ourselves.

Last weekend we rolled in around happy hour, grabbed some loaded nachos and wings that hit way better than your average bar food (that Sofitel polish really shows), and just vibed with the pool view in the background. Staff were super friendly, kept the drinks coming without us even having to flag them down, and the whole place has this fun, laid-back energy that makes you forget you're in a hotel. Perfect for pre-gaming before a concert at MOA Arena or just unwinding after a long week. Easily 5 stars--will keep coming back.

On these rare occasions of doing guy things with my friends (unfortunately us girls can't always choose shopping, coffee shops, mani-pedi, brunch, or wine bars as a bonding activity), we would end up bowling or at a pub/sports bar. SNAPS bar is one of the places we go to for some beer and to shoot some pool then go hang out by the bay for sunset or hang out just after sunset. Drinks are hotel priced so expect to pay a little bit more than your usual pub. Service is good and the bar chow is what you would expect from a hotel bar. There's also happy hour from 5-8PM so that can also be an alternative venue for some post-work drinks or apero. Just a word of caution: try not to drink too much, otherwise, you may end up gambling at the casino just next to it!

It's hard to whine when it's just wine, but to dine is another line…read more The wine club has been retailing California wines for over 10 years at prices lower than anyone else on the market, being that they are the main distributor of such. Bottles start from around 700 pesos and the best part is the no-surcharge for in-store consumption, but service charge will be added on, which is fair enough since wine glasses are provided. Simply pick a bottle and have them serve the wine, that feature is a solid 4.0, but held back by their food, which is a sorry 2.0 on average. We were Driven to believe that a bottle of red wine would suffice both the 4 cheese pizza and the meat pizza, but the cheese pizza pairs better with white wine. The 4 Cheese Pizza (490 PHP) is a combination of blue cheese, parmesan, goat cheese, and mozzarella, which in totality is fairly a decent topping, though the dough was dry in performance. The Meat Pizza (500 PHP) just doesn't work in composition, it's a work in progress, which is a new a direction for this once purely retail shop. Overall, Come for wine and dine elsewhere and you'll be fine.

The bartender Loven was feeling particularly nice and loaded it up with candy and whipped cream, which I appreciated. I would come back and bring friends.

I believe The Curator had previously been listed in Asia's 50 Best Bars and rightfully so, as the quality was obviously there in each drink we ordered. There was something unique but also familiar; some cocktails were ridiculously smooth, clean tasting and presentation was on point. Drinks are not surprisingly on the higher side, but it was definitely worth it. Full review: purplecuriosity.wordpress.com/2020/02/16/the-curator-coffee-and-cocktails/

Apart…read morefrom the fact that I was impressed the restaurant supports the cause for agreeing to participate, they also made it extra special because Chef Markus Gfeller prepared two four-course fine dining menus (one of them, a vegetarian option) specially for the event! Oh, did I also mention that there was a choice of bottomless Beringer red or white wines for your classy drinking pleasure? The place is just superb and huge, with a relaxing atmosphere that glows with the afternoon sun. And at night, the it gets more romantic with its warm lighting. The food was overall satisfying and different. I especially liked the pomelo sherbet dessert above all that I dream about it from time to time. It was a totally new experience to me who isn't a huge fan of wines overall. I enjoyed the white wine though. It is very..."potent", to say that in a less elegant manner. That said though, in a normal day, I wouldn't spend so much in a place like CAV. Perhaps at another fund-raising event when I know my money will save lives.
